Several students are working together to sell shirts and raise money for the boys' families.

Sophomore Jessica Comeaux, 17, said she's known Smith since they were in the second grade together and met Edwards her sixth-grade year. She said she'd been thinking about their family after the wreck and how much money it costs to hold funerals.

The shirts will be purple with camouflage writing. Order forms will be available at each campus and at the Hardin County Courthouse. Proceeds will go to the two boys' families.

"Keiron always was wearing camo pants. He loved camo," Comeaux said. "Savion has this purple hoodie, he would wear it like everyday. That was his favorite color."

About 5:30 p.m. Friday, Smith and Edwards and two other teenagers - who were treated for injuries and released - were southbound on U.S. 69 when the driver slowed to turn left onto Hooks Cemetery Road, according to a Department of Public Safety report. Another vehicle was stopped in the northbound lane, preparing to turn left onto Colonial Road, when a northbound 1994 Chevrolet Suburban passing that vehicle on the shoulder struck the Kia.

The driver of the Suburban, 62-year-old John Delagarza of Beaumont, received minor injuries.

The investigation has not been completed, and it is not known whether any charges will be filed.

Senior Ty Hall, 17, said Edwards and Smith were great guys, but even better friends.

Hall said that Edwards dreamed of becoming famous in track, perhaps even competing in the Olympics.

"I will remember them as brothers to me. They were my 'go-to' people for advice, and they inspired me and the whole school in many ways," Hall said. "I love them with all my heart and I know they will watch over me and protect me."

Sophomore Alysen Campbell, 15, said she and Smith became close friends when she was a freshman.

"Savion was the most caring person I've ever met. He was perfect. His smile was so beautiful. He never let anything get to him," Campbell said.

"I try my best not to cry, but I know that Savion and Keiron would both want us to stay happy," Williamson said. "They are now in a better place, but it just don't seem real. I didn't believe it when I heard it."

Campbell said Edwards was known for his love of skateboarding and track.

"He was so good and was excited about track season coming up," she said.

The duo loved hanging out at Pizza Pro, she said.

Comeaux said that Edwards was also an amazing football player.

"Keiron, he was someone I could go to, and talk about anything," she said. "I love them both, and Kountze High School will never be the same without them."
